Also my foglights (If anyone can give me any tips before I start cutting into my bumper that would be great)

Either you have small hands or those foglights are huge haha.

Door panel looks great btw!

I can't get mine to stick on the bottom of my lip either.

Is this what you have? I'm using good 3M tape too...and no adhesion. I tried rubbing alcohol on it, might even put the thing in the tub too and see if that helps. It's like there's some coating on there...

I went to a show in Bowling Green called SouthernRoots. It was decent. Show ended two hours early for no reason though.

Found this other 6th Gen, with a 6th Gen Accord banner, so I figure he's on here.

I had that on my radar but needed to use that day to work on the car.

Could that be Jake’s coupe maybe? He lives in KY I think.

TL's were on because the Rotiforms need tires badly. Also got offered RPF1's for my TL's with cash on my end. May end up doing that.

The lower or higher offset RPF’s? I don’t think the ones w/the faces that stick out look very good.

Maybe this could be the 1st time for me to help you get the JDM scrape guards on your underspoilers, gentlemen.

I have this, and can't be happier. No matter what weather conditions I've had over the years, it has been on like a champ, and took only a minute to attach it. Although my car is not heavily low, I see many scrape marks showing that it has been protecting a lot. (My front lip is poly u, so I didn't REALLY need it, but you two w/ FRP will love this.) I bought it in JPN, but you can get it at here:

The site's English is translated funky, but it's a well-trusted online store in JPN yet this one is the site's international ver. for us to purchase JDM stuff in the U.S.

Add it to your wish list, and feel free to lmk, if you have some troubles w/ the language. when the time comes. ;)[/quote]

Those translations are funny. I mainly want one for protection so that looks like a good option, but I liked the way it would have bent downward so you can see it…just think it adds a sporty look, as well as more protection probably. Like this:

OEM lips were advertised as polyurethane, mine took some beatings and never shattered. So I think they are poly-u but others don’t. Anyway thanks for the rec!

The garage door stuff I have is the exact same thing with 3M tape. I don't know who Jake is, unless he's the one that lived close to Cincinatti. I know that thing is stock now. The RPF1s have a little bit of a lip I believe

Debadged her today. Love the new look. does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the ghost letters off?

Wait years and years and years until the paint fades.... the problem is the paint under the emblem is a lot fresher and affected a lot less by the elements than the paint around the badge because it has been covered up all these years. you can try clay barring it excessively but results will vary and you will likely have to do it a number of times. I had a buddy de-badge his evo within a couple years of getting it and the ghost letters never went away. Honestly I can't tell there are ghost letters in the picture. I bet most people wont notice unless they look/you point it out.

I used the same thing on my front bumper and it stuck with no problems at all. I just gave it a quick wipe with a paper towel and a little rubbing alcohol first. Been on for about a year now and had no problems even in the "drizzly" northwest.

I was working on replacing the shifter. Lost one of the pieces so took apart cup holder and surrounding pieces. Couldn't find it so had to order from dealership. Kinda lost interest in the project so I put my car back together earlier today. Later on Today some dude rang my doorbell and offered to buy my car! I gotta figure out my finances to see if it's a good deal to sell. Im the original owner so....

Yea right? Lol But the site is not sketchy or anything, so just keep that in mind. ;) I see; That's fair enough. You might hear the sound of impact on the ground more often haha. Indeed, it looks nice.. but you're gonna lose some of the aerodynamic effect! JK :p

Oh, that's right. I remember Kevin was saying it's poly.

Hope to see her beautiful front-end soon once again!

Called SRP to check on my pedals, they’re with the anodizer. When I ordered 3/19 I was told it’d be 3-4 weeks, and today was told another 1-2. The guy was super nice and apologetic, sounded like he was really busy.

Anyway, if you order pedals from SRP, just be prepared to wait. It’s a high quality product though.
